Who were the pleasant surprises from last year?

I can't remember much about the season last year. Had a lot going on like most people so it was all pretty much a blur. By the time the season got started life was all about work and recovering from work so I barely paid attention.

I'm trying to think of what this team might look like going forward, but without a better understanding of what we were able to do with who we had, it's kind of hard.

So who were the standouts on offense and defense? Think about the obvious and the not so obvious that you'd like to see more of going forward. The guys that should be included in the plans for 2021.

 

Also...who were the ones that we don't need to waste anymore time on? I prefer to see who were the shiny bits from last year, but it's also good to know who y'all think we should move on from.

 

thanks in advance.

On offense our receivers stood out I thought.

On defense the obvious standouts were Burns and Chinn with promising starts from Brown and flashes from YGM.

I'd like to move on from Slye and happy we moved on from Boston

I really wanted us to add Jose Borregales from Miami, that kid is so accurate. He doesn't just make his kicks, he centers almost all of them. Unfortunately Tampa Bay picked him up. Will be interesting to see if he can beat out Ryan Succop.

Well you didn’t specifically ask about this...but special teams. 

I’m personally tired of the Joey Sly experiment at K

Thought the local kid we brought off his couch to punt did a good job.  

I still would like someone I felt confident in as a PR guy.  Just fielding them clean has been a nerve racking feeling most seasons.

I feel like both John Miller and Juston Burris were quite overlooked by the fans but were pretty damn good at times.  Not world beaters but I just don't see them really talked of much.

Otherwise I would say the entire draft class minus Thomas-Oliver.

Also add on Carter Jr. fighting his way through the doghouse and into Rhule's favor.

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out.

      I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
